Will my mother board drivers work with windows 7

I've been googling and searching the forums here and I'm not sure.......


I have a striker formula II MB, when I install windows 7 will the mother board drivers install from their disk or do I need to burn some updated ones.

Thank you for any help.

I would install Windows 7 without them and see what happens.

Windows 7, like Vista, has a ton of legacy drivers on board for most occasions.

Run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor --> http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

How old is the disk and how old are the drivers?

Windows 7 drivers are (most) all dated July 2009.

Re: Will my mother board drivers work with windows 7

Asus has the windows 7 drivers, get them first, then install 7. Not a big deal, slap them on a cd or usb drive and there you go. Not sure if they have them for older motherboards, but yours will be fine. I just snagged mine last week for my P5K-E, no worries.

Cheers for that I didn't think to look there!!

Which ones should I take from there? All of them or just the basic utilities and sound ones?

Thank again for all the help.
